Where Do I Start

I picked up the newspaper this morning and it said the  world was in a mess

Violence in our communities and cities presents a real test

I am really puzzled as to how this all came about

Perhaps you will answer me softly and not have to shout

We stopped teaching our children about  the God above

Depending on their video games to to teach them and show them love.

Moma don't cook any more and give me fast food instead

It taste great  to me but  I  wound up dead

Everyone is in a rush it seems to go nowhere

Slow down a minute and enjoy the fresh air.

Teach our children respect  and  always keep them learning

Encourage them to grow and keep the fire burning.  

Give them a good education to inspire love and hope

Give them all the tools they need in these troubled times to cope.
